The image you are looking at is a small Korche Buck. This buck was seen in abundance in our country. However, these bucks are now almost extinct.

English name of this buck: Little Egret and scientific name: Egretta garzetta (Linnaeus, 1766).

It is a bird in the Ardeidae family. This buck is found in Europe, Australia, India. Bangladesh also has a buck. This buck is especially abundant in the Sundarbans region. However, they are also seen in water bodies in other parts of Bangladesh.

Their skin color is pure white. Their length is about 55-66 cm and wingspan is up to 106 cm. Their average weight is 350 grams.

However, their lips and legs are black in color. They usually live in areas near natural water bodies. Their migration is highest along the river banks of Sundarbans as forest areas of coastal river basins. But they look pretty good. They look very beautiful when they hunt fish with their long beaks.
